Please read the user manual, it will tell you a lot of valuable information about your Z.

When i test drove my Z Roadster, I said i wanted to look in the trunk to "see just how small it was". Honestly, I wasn't buying it for storage space, but have you seen the Solstice/Sky trunk? I need something I can at least put a dufflebag or groceries in. After 5 minutes of looking, my sales guy calls over another sales guy who didn't know, and then finally a third guy was like "its right above the license plate". To their credit, it isn't exactly obvious, but yea, come on ...

WHen you own as many cars as I do, you really do not get a chance to read all the manuals. Sorry

Well, every new car I have ever owned, I have read the entire manual.

I did take my parents Jeep one time and needed to put gas in it. I looked all over hell and back for the darn gas cap. Couldn't find it. Had to ask a girl in the gas station if she knew. She said did you try behind the license plate.

Hello, what is this 1970. My 1970's cars had it under there. How was I to know Jeep still did thing the old fashioned way. Felt pretty darn stupid too!!

I read mine a month before I got the car. Downloaded the PDF version. But then again, I'm crazy like that.

I finished reading my user manual, service, and warranty information booklets in the first 2 weeks after I got the Z.

After finished reading the user manual, the biggest surprise I found was the secret compartment inside the rear parcel box behind the passenger seat.

I would never found that out if I didn't read the user manual. By the way, it's a good place to keep my wheel lock.

I read the manual as soon as JmanZ posted the link to it on this site before the car came out!
